First, my neurologist has quit treating WC cases. I am in constant pain from TOS. WC in California is almost non-existent when considering TOS. I need a new neurologist in the SF Bay Area who understands TOS. Must be on the WC network providers list.
Second, SS disability has turned down my claim for the second time, so I now must hire an attorney to represent my case with SS. Have had hand, shoulder and spine problems that have been cumulative since 1997. Diagnosed with TOS, costoclavicular compression and organic writer's cramp by a top neurologist in the field. Further documented by top UCLA Radiologist and further documentation by local tests in the SF area. WC denies treatment and permanent disability. Does anyone have a Social Security attorney to recommend? I am represented in my WC case. |

depending on how much summarizing you can do, you can get plenty of uninformed opinions from people like me, but do check out your documentation vs WC denial with a few people before you assume you won't get anywhere. If it's anything like the appeals you have to go through for disability, sometimes it is more a matter of stamina and meeting deadlines than rationality.
Hang in there - love your name, I wish I'd thought of it.
